Method · one step per line

Get a pan searing hot (or use your BBQ). Add oil and add the shishito peppers in carefully. #1
Keep flipping the peppers so all sides are equally grilled. They will need about 5 minutes. They will start to blister, where the skin will peel a bit. Once the peppers soften, push them to the side of your pan. Add the scallions to char them on all sides. These cook quickly so they only need about 2 - 3 minutes. #2
Chop the parsley. This will help it blend faster instead of the fibers getting stuck in the blender blades. #8
Take everything out and add it to a blender. Add the parsley, oil, lemon juicee, garlic, salt and pepper and blend. #1#2#3#4#5#6#7#8
If needed, you can add more oil or lemon juice to encourage it to blend. Just be mindful as both of those add flavor, so taste as you go. 
Taste and adjust seasoning. If it's tasting a bit "dull" add salt. If it it's a bit sweet from the scallions and peppers, add lemon. If you want it to be punchier, add garlic or consider red pepper flakes. 
Take out and store in an airtight container.
